X-Factor

With Britney Spears close to announcing her ‘X Factor‘ deal, another person is joining the staff of the Fox show: her fiance and future co-conservator, Jason Trawick.

Britney Spears may or may not be a judge on ‘X Factor,’ as rumors abound that she remains knee- deep in negotiations for the gig. But she is indeed the face of Hasbro’s Twister Dance. The ‘Criminal’ singer confirmed she would be partnering with the game earlier this winter. Now, she has generously shared photos from the shoot, baring her taut, toned bod. Brit is looking as good as she has in years

Is Britney Spears signing on to ‘X Factor‘ after all? Reports have surfaced claiming the ‘Til the World Ends’ singer met up with her conservatorship judge to discuss the panelist position.

Good news, Avril Lavigne fans! Get ready to see more of the starlet if all goes to plan. The Canadian poppy-punkster is in talks to be a new ‘X Factor‘ judge.

Congratulations to Rachel Crow! Everyone’s favorite pint-sized ‘X Factor‘ contestant may not have won the competition (thanks a lot, Nicole Scherzinger!), but she’s doing just fine on her own. Crow snagged a TV pilot with Nickelodeon and a record deal, so get ready to see a lot more of her.

After the surprised firings of ‘X Factor‘ host Steve Jones and judges Nicole Scherzinger and Paula Abdul, the Hollywood Reporter has revealed that L.A. Reid will stay on as a judge for Season 2.

The producers of ‘X Factor‘ are not playing around! Following shakeups with the judges and host, Simon Cowell‘s pet project has been looking into hiring Mariah Carey as a mentor for some time. However, whispers of Beyonce beating Mimi to the spot are growing louder, and Bey’s rumored paycheck is growing bigger. A lot bigger — to the tune of $100 million!

While ‘X Factor‘ fans will surely miss Paula Abdul and Nicole Scherzinger, their exits may be blessings in disguise. Rumor has it that Simon Cowell has his eye on two record setting pop divas to join his panel: Katy Perry and Mariah Carey!

Shocker:  Paula Abdul won't return to Fox's singing competition 'The X-Factor' when it returns for its second season this fall.  Abdul joins fellow judge Nicole Scherzinger and host Steve Jones on the pink-slip list.

Call it a clash of the divas! Following a tumultuous first ‘X Factor‘ season, Nicole Scherzinger is rumored to be leaving … And to have a pretty pricey replacement: None other than the best selling female artist of all time, Mariah Carey, may fill the Over 30s judge’s designer shoes!

Astro, the 15-year old rap phenom who wowed X-Factor judge and mentor LA Reid and may be best remembered for his tantrum after he was voted into the bottom group of contestants has singed a record deal.

Leona Lewis showed everyone how it’s done with her ‘X Factor‘ performance of Snow Patrol’s ‘Run.’ The U.K. ‘X Factor’ winner proved she earned her victory — and the Grammy nominations, platinum records and global superstardom that came with it.
